The Better World

I believe the world to be beautiful once Before humanities came along Nothing anymore were given a chance A better world perhaps will too soon be gone Where there be one who save There always will be one who destroys Side by side we live as victims and slaves If yet Heaven and Hell... are we not simply toys? As green as the leaves once grew As cool as the natural wind once blew As blue as once the seas we never knew How did we try to save? To mend things anew? Every one building to mean fallen trees Every one serving to mean another death Yet as human we never did live as free Perhaps our downfall is how the world had secretly theft Is the world to be beautiful once? Before humanities are to come along I do not see the deliverance for another chance Shall the better world... too soon begone
